These photos prove you need to eat noodles quickly during Russia's winter

Eating noodles in sub-zero temperatures is no easy task, as one Russian Instagrammer found out. The man, who lives in the city of Norilsk, posted a photo of his fork literally hovering in mid-air while loaded with icy noodles on his balcony.

He said the noodles had only been outside for four minutes before they froze solid. He took inspiration from Italian explorers who posted images of their suspended forks while they were eating the Asian staple in Antarctica.
